Worth a Thousand Words

I don’t know the story behind this picture. I don’t really care. The guy is watching Glenn Beck while surrounded by a huge cache of guns all while draped in an American Flag, so it perpetuates all the stereotypes I’m looking for. That’s good enough to make it on this blog.
Or maybe he’s just preparing [...]

Moving Into Enemy Territory

So, it’s not completely official, but I’m probably moving to Minneapolis in the near future.
I just got a call from The Hittman — he just got an offer accepted on a condo in Minneapolis. And he’s going to be my landlord come March/April once he closes on everything.
I just couldn’t stand to be away from [...]

Stuff For Kids Who Can Read Good

I always find too many informative political and economic articles to share, so I’ll select a few and throw them all in to one post of important stuff you should read to get your week started:
1. Maybe we shouldn’t be blaming our leaders for not being able to lead:
A thought-provoking read from Slate.com: Down With [...]

The Official Super Bowl Preview

It’s been a while since I’ve posted my full weekly NFL preview column on here. But it’s the Super Bowl, so I figure I might as well go out of the football season with one last big push. I have some recap stuff to get to once the season is completely over, and I will [...]

Sarah Palin to Join Fox News

A big thanks to Rachel who sent me this report from the Miami Herald:
Sarah Palin, who regularly rips the media, is becoming a television pundit at a place where she’s likely to feel at home.
A Fox News executive says the network will shortly announce that the former vice-presidential nominee is signing on as a contributor.
Palin, [...]

Minimal IQ

Fox News, solving the unemployment crisis one crazy idea at a time:

That’s exactly what we want! Get the unemployment rate down by lowering minimum wage for workers, thus lowering the standard of living for more Americans — but hey, at least more people would have sh*tty jobs, right?

Mavericky Sentence Structure

The Great Wahl crowd tends to lean to the left or, at the very least, can’t stand Sarah Palin. I know everyone enjoys a good political bashing — and today, I’ve got a really good one.
Slate recently ran a “write like Sarah Palin” competition in honor of her book, Going Rogue.
They just posted twelve of [...]

Black Friday

A quick note on my personal thoughts regarding Black Friday: the dumbest ‘cultural’ event in the history of mankind.
People seriously get up at the ass-crack of dawn and wait in line to spend money they can’t afford to spend, all because some CEOs have brainwashed and conditioned them to do so? What a bunch of [...]

The End of Negadelphia???

[Editorial Note: I'm late getting ready for my weekend trip in Chicago, so I don't have time to edit, proofread, insert links, or, most importantly, censor this article for Wernick. But I must admit, I watched the first six innings of the World Series game last night, and despite the fact that I want nothing [...]

The Case for the Phillies

[Editorial Note: Another historic day on The Great Wahl. Running a blog can get tiresome, so it helps to have some...help. BJones was the first guest writer I had last week, writing a college football preview. Now, Wernick is jumping on the bandwagon and wants to use my soapbox here to promote his wonderful little [...]
